I moved an Access 97 database from a peer network to a domain. now when I open the database on the domain I get a message that the database is read only and no changes will be saved. The strange thing though is that I can enter data and it is saved. Does any one know the cause of this message poping up?

There are a lot of settings within the old db that will prevent you from changing it. Entring new data is not considered as changing the db.

To get rid of the old settings, your best bet is to create a new empty db, then bring in the tables, forms, and other objects from the older one.
